A Note from the President

This past year was a year of transition and continued program excellence here at CRI. Thanks too exceptional volunteer support and “stepping up” from our rowing community, I am pleased to reporteport Lila McCain, Board President that we have raised the bar at all operational and programming levels.

Our outreach programming for the Boston Public Schools, Military Veterans and Para Rowers continued to grow and thrive in 2013. With generous grant and foundation support, we were able to add additional schools to our BPS schedule and bring many of these young athletes to CRI for on-the-water programming. Our Middle School Indoor Rowing Program is now serving as an effective pipeline for the high dosage, competitive program for BPS high schoolers.

In 2013, we said goodbye to our friend and long-time Comp Girls Coach Ethan Curren as he moved with his family to upstate New York. Boys Coach Marko Vukovic also left to pursue other opportunities. CRI was fortunate to have two exceptional in-house candidates who were hired in late summer and did not miss a beat with regards to getting our youth teams ready for the fall season. Welcome Veronika “Vee” Platzer and Will Congram!

As an organization, we have an award-winning boathouse, outstanding coaches and a high producing staff. We are continually looking to provide the best possible experience for our rowing population. To that end, we are exploring a comprehensive and proactive equipment replacement plan which will enable us to have high quality boats, oars and other crucial equipment to provide an optimal experience for everyone in our community. As always, we remain committed to “Rowing for All” through our outreach programs and scholarships.

I thank you for your support and input as we move these initiatives ahead this coming year. It is an honor to serve this fantastic organization. CRI 2013 Annual Report 3 Directors

NeverN “Coach Parker,” always just “Harry.”

Coach,C educator, and an inspiration for innovation and a commitmentc to excellence, Harry Parker, coach of the Harvard HeavyweightH Men’s Crew for 52 seasons, passed on June 25, 20132 after a battle with cancer. “ WhWhatat I do is nnurtureurture traitstraits that are already there within WhenW the time came to name the CRI Boathouse, a group of the rower. …I create an Harry’s rowers from Harvard sought to honor him by naming environment that fosters our beautiful facility for their coach and mentor. Harry, as those traits.” expected, demurred. After some thoughtful persuading by the

— Harry Parker rowing community and Harry’s wife Kathy, he fi nally accepted this honor and we are so pleased that Harry lived to see not only the completion of the building, but the tremendous growth of all our program sectors.

Thank you, Harry, for changing our world. You are loved and missed.
